Getting Started

Positioning the speakers (MHC-RG66

only)

1Place the front speakers at an angle of

45 degrees from your listening

position.

5Connect the power cord to a wall outlet.

The demonstration appears in the display.

When you press ?/1, the system turns on

and the demonstration automatically ends.

If the supplied adapter on the plug does not

fit your wall outlet, detach it from the plug

(only for models equipped with an adapter).

To connect optional components

See page 29.

To attach the front speaker pads

Attach the supplied front speaker pads to the

bottom of the speakers to stabilize the speakers

and prevent them from slipping.

Notes

•Keep the speaker cords away from the antennas to

prevent noise.

•Do not place the surround speakers on top of a TV.

This may cause distortion of the colors in the TV

screen.

•Be sure to connect both left and right surround

speakers. Otherwise, the sound will not be heard.

Hooking up the system (continued)

Inserting two R6 (size AA)

batteries into the remote

Tip

With normal use, the batteries should last for about

six months. When the remote no longer operates the

system, replace both batteries with new ones.

Note

If you do not use the remote for a long period of time,

remove the batteries to avoid possible damage from

battery leakage.

Positioning the sub woofer (MHC-

RG55S only)

Since the human ear cannot detect the direction

and position where the bass sound being

reproduced by a woofer (below 150 Hz) comes

from, you can place the woofer wherever you

like in your room. To obtain a better bass

reproduction, we recommend you to place the

woofer on a solid floor where the resonance is

unlikely to occur.

Notes

•Always place the woofer vertically, keeping a few

centimeters from away the wall.

•If the woofer is placed in the center of a room, the

bass could be extremely weakened. This is due to

the influence of the standing wave of the room. If

this happened, move the woofer away from the

center of a room or eliminate the cause of the

standing wave, by placing a bookshelf on the wall,

etc.

When carrying this system

Perform the following procedure to protect

the CD mechanism.

1Make sure that all discs are removed

from the system.

2Hold down CD and then press ?/1 until

“STANDBY” appears.

When you release the buttons, “LOCK”

appears.

3Unplug the power cord.
